I know you actually know what’s coming next, but what’s your interpretation at this point of why Michonne knocked out Rick?

It’s multi-layered. Michonne — like Rick, who at the moment is doing a fairly poor job of being a constable — is charged with keeping the peace. Someone waving a gun around with innocent people standing nearby is probably a threat to that peace. He’s already pushed his son away, Deanna had no impact, so it was really the only option left to her. Did she do that because she’s embraced Deanna’s approach? Or is she doing it to protect Rick from himself? Or a little of both?

Just a reminder that the season finale will be 90 minutes long. Guests on Talking Dead will be Scott Gimple, Norman Reedus, Melissa McBride, and a surprise cast member.

Walking Dead ping!

Please let me know if you'd like on or off The Walking Dead ping list.

I guess I am just too squeamish.

Years ago I stopped watching CSI (when there was only one) due to the gross and disgusting things they showed on screen during the show.

had to mark Grimm off the lest the other day, same reason. I have some NCIS episodes that have come close to the line, but it isn’t every episode.

I tried to watch TWD and had the same problem.

It seems this is a trend and, frankly, I don’t get it.

She did it to protect Rick and also I believe to protect the hope of Alexandria from Rick which is pretty thin to being with given how weak and cowardly they really are.

That surprise cast member is most likely the one who is going to be dead.

In before the “I haven’t watched TV or left my house since 1963” crowd!

I think she gave him the smackdown for OPSEC’s sake.

Never give too much inside info away, even if it’s for immediate comfort. I think Michonne wanted Alexandria to be “the resting place” but it wasn’t much better than Woodbury.

And they are going to be dealing with a Her Thighness mourning her little a’hole.

Cue the bugout that won’t happen.

Instead,I smell a big takeover attempt tomorrow night.(See the preview of Carol ready to fish gut Jessis’s hubby?)

In these scenarios, you don’t win some, without losing some. We’re going to lose a hero or 2 (or the cliffhangers will amek us think we lost them...)

Ok I could be wrong but my theory is that Michonne, since she is Rick’s right hand person. I feel right after the HRC wanna be stated about exiling Rick. Michonne perhaps felt that it was better to knock him out in front of Deanna to show her who her alliance is with BUT also keeps her inside Alexandria to protect “HER FAMILY” (Rick’s group) from being kicked out.

Don’t know if it’s been posted yet but I read today that the new walking dead companion series will be called “Fear the Walking Dead.”

My daughter who has read the comics said she thinks Darryl and Aaron the shirtlifter are going to be in all kinds of trouble in the season ender tomorrow.

I don’t think Darryl dies though, I read an article recently about his new bike, it’s a customized Honda Nighthawk 750 frame & engine, they built two identical bikes in fact, we’ve only seen it for 3 seconds so why go to all that trouble for just one episode?

If anybody dies in the Finale I have a feeling it will be Glenn although I wish someone would rid us of that meddlesome priest Gabriel.
